A Political Breeze in Old Ireland—An I A i* predation of Sympathy—Belligerent Honlangists—News From South American States. ENGLAND. A POLITICAL BREEZE. London, January 24.—The action of the Cork authorities in dissolving the board of guardians, in consequence of tne passage of a resolution by that body expressing full confidence in Mr. Par-nell, has raised a breeze which bids fair to assume the magnitude and distinctive force of a hurricane. The ostensible reason for the dissolution of the board was its expression of opinion on affairs of a; political character, but the real reason was that the politics treated of was not of the right stripe. To say that the affair has aroused a feeling of indig-nation, is to put it very mildly, and it will be some time before the last is heard of it. The hoard (numbered several Tories and Unionists among its members, and it will be remembered that not only were, they present when the offending resolution was passed, but that it re-ceived the affirmative votes of all those in attendance, despite the turbulent con-duct Of Dr. Tanner, which might have been expected to influence votes against T11K PORTUGUESE QUESTION. London, January 24.—Gradually it is dawning upon the Portuguese govern-ment and through it upon the populace that i continuance of the anti-English demonstrations which have disgraced Lisbon and other cities and towns in the kingdom aie not only rendering Portugal a laughing stock for Europe, but are really tending towards forcing England into an attitude of hostility, the grounds of which are much stronger than those upon which Lord Salisbury’s ultimatum was based. THE PORTUGUESE MINISTER. LiJndon, January 24.—A dispatch from Lisbpn states that the announcement that Marquis de Frcalho would be ap-pointed Portuguese minister to Great Britain was incorrect. Senor Barjona de Treitas will be appointed to that post. ALARM OF FIRE AT SEA. London, January 24.—The British steamer Sardiana from Portland January 9 arrived at Liverpool last night. She reports heavy weather on January 1(5, when an alarm of fire was given, caused by the bursting of a steam gauge. In the meantime the funnel was smashed and the fire was smothered by water pouring down on it. Two men were killed and the third so badly injured that he soon died. Three other men were badly injured. It was impossible to replace the funnel for twenty-four hours and in the meantime the steamer drafted and the storm at the same time increasing in severity. The killed were buried at sea when the storm abated. All the Sardiana’s life boats were smashed by heavy seas. DOCK MEN ON A STRIKE. London, January 24.—Two hundred dock laborers employed in discharging the British steamer Bengore at Liver-pool from Brunswick, stopped work to-day on representations of delegates of Belfast Dock Laborer’s union that the Ulster Steamship company, to which the Bengore belongs would not concede to the demands of the laborers. I PORTUGAL. APPRECIATION OF SYMPATHY. Lisbon, January 24.—Three thousand Portuguese citizens have left their cards at the French and Spanish legations in this city to show their appreciation of the sympathy with Portugal shown by the French and Spanish in the Anglo- Portuguese dispute. * NATIONAL DEFENSE FUND.. Lisbon, January 24.—A large meeting was held in Trinity theater last night to start a fund for national defense. The Duke of Pomares presided. A committee of twenty, consisting of leading citizens and naval and military officers, was ap-pointed to solicit subscriptions to the fund. A number of speeches were made, j in which England was bitterly assailed j for the course she has followed in the dispute with Portugal, and the French j and Spanish lauded for their sympathy with the Portuguese. A number of sub-scriptions were made to the fund by per-sons present at the meeting. FRANCE. A FIGHTING ROTHSCHILD. 1‘akis, January 24.—Edmond Roths-child, son of Baron Alphonse Rothschild, became involved in a dispute with Mar-quis de Gouay. A challenge was sent and accepted and to-day the duel was fought. The marquis was wounded. B E LLIG E It E NT BOUL ^N GISTS. Paris, January 24.—General Bon-langer has sent a telegram to M. Paul Derculde and his colleagues in the cham-ber of deputies who led the recent re-volt in that body, when Jeffrain at-tempted to speak congratulating them upon showing themselyes to be the real defenders of universal suffrage. M. Martineau, member of the chamber of deputies, who recently seceded from the Boulangist party, entered a meeting of Boulangists held here last night. He was immediately attacked, kicked, cuffed and spit upon and compelled to sign a resignation of his seat in the chamber. PERU. TIIE COUNTRY PROSPEROUS. Lima, January 24.—The director of customs has passed an interesting note to the government demonstrating the immediate effect of the settlement of the national debt, and says there has been a marked increase in rents. In the first seventeen days of this mouth collections exceeded those of the whole of January last year. ARGENTINE REPUBLIC. THE BOUNDARY LINE QUESTION. Monti:vino,January 24.—The Brazilian and Argentine ministers will have a ore-liminary conference regarding the form of a boundary treaty. Bocavuva has re-solved to terminate the question without awaiting t-lie arrival of Col. Cerqueirand, the consulting member of committee who explored the Territory in de-spute and is bound here from Missions. BUENO* AYRES. A HEAVY DEFALCATION. Buenos Ayres,January 24.—Rio News communicates the discovery of a defal-cation of 90,000 pesos in the telegraph department, of which Baron Capenima was chief. It is asserted by the cashier that the Baron disposed of this money and assisted others against whom orders of arrest had been issued. Capenima has been imprisoned. GERMANY. THE SOCIALISTIC BILL. Berlin, January 24.—A conference of ministers was held to-day to discuss the situation in the reichstag in regard to the Socialistic bill. Emperor William pre-sided at the conference. THE BORDER BELLE. The Great Boom Still Booms for Plucky Laredo. Laredo, January 24.—[Special.]—As an indication of the stability of rentes-tate values in Laredo a woolen company from Monticello, Ind., who have made arrangements to establish a first-class woolen mill in Laredo and have the same in operation by the 1st of next June, consummated a sale to-day to a few citizens of lands for $10,000 in cash the unimproved blocks as yet unsettled in the northeastern suburbs of the city, to be donated to the wool company by the city as an inducement to erect their factory in Laredo. When it is consid-ered that the city has set aside 100 blocks in the same locality to be donated to the encouragement of manufacturing enterprises, it will explain the claim that Laredo makes of becoming the largest manufacturing city in the state in the near future. A carload of machinery has just been shipped from Houston to the Laredo Cotton Gin and Grist Mill company, who have just finished a large, two-story brick building for their plant. This fact is significant as showing the wonderful development of the rich country around Laredo, which but a few years ago, before the advent of railroads in the city, was an unsettled frontier. The large brick building, 150x50 feet, two stories high, being erected for an iron and brass foundry and machine shops is nearly completed and it is ex-pected that the machinery will be in po-sition by the middle of February. The jury in the trial of Fete Ham-mond, for the murder of J. W. Mul-doney last August, vindicated the law to-day and emphasized the fact that this people will not tolerate crime by bring-ing in a verdict of guilty and assessing the punishment at confinement in the penitentiary for life. The demand for residence sites on wliat is called the Beautiful Heights is unprecedented and the rapidity with which beautiful and costly residences are going up in that vicinity, is a mar-vel to all. Two Kansas Officials Resign. Kansas City, January 24.—A special to the Star from Topeka, Kas., says: James W. Hamilton handed his resigna-tion as state treasurer to Governor Humphrey to-day, to take effect on the appointment and qualification of his sue-cessor who will be named within the next ten days.The resignation of J. B. Cogston as supreme court commissioner was ac* eepted by Governor Humobrey to-day. Paul i*icBride Indicted. St. Loris, January 24.—The grand jury to-day returned an indictment for murder in the first degree against Faul McBride,son of the well-known attorney, James J. McBride. On the evening of November 15th, 1889, young McBride shot and killed Frank Loftus, an ex-fire-man in the city’s employ. A bitter fight has beeD made in the case, McBride’s father haunting the courts in an effort to compromise the matter, while Loftus’ friends among the firemen raised a fund to prosecute the case. I do not control the earth, but I can insure your property in the Liverpool & London and Globe insurance company. Spot cash without discount. T. D. Hays, Agent. Large, new mackerel—this season’s catch—atB. A. Little & Co.’s. TKE TERRY TRAGEDY. THE INDICTKD PRISONERS ARK STILL HELD IN GALVESTON. Shot Down by Assassins—Weather and Crop Bulletin—An Indian Girl Found Dead—Deed of Trust—Other State Specials. The Galveston Prisoners. Galveston, January 24.—Calvin Blakely, one of the Jaybirds arrested and held for carrying concealed deadly weapons in connection with the Gibson- Terry homicide, and released yesterday on a bond of $300, returned this evening and surrendered himself to the sheriff . It seems that after Blakely left for home yesterday he was indicted for assault with intent to murder. Hearing of it he at once returned and gave himself up. The grand jury also found indict-ment against Judge "j. W. Parker for car-rying concealed deadly weapons. The parties so far indicted for complicity in the tragedy of last Wednesday are Volvey Gibson, Wm. Little, Wm. Andrus, Cal-vin Blakely, Jas. Mitchell, Dan Ragsdale and Wm. McFarland. James Mitchell and Dan Ragsdale have now three in-dictments against them for assault to murder and for carrying concealed deadly weapons. It is believed that when the excitement attendant unon the killing has subsided applications for bond through habeas corpus will be made by the prisoners. Supreme Court Decisions. Galveston, January 24.—[Special.]— The supreme court met to-day, with a full bench present. The following cases were disposed of and submitted: Affirmed — Wright vs. McCampbell, from Neuces; Reinstein vs. Daniels, from Washington; Love vs. Breedlove, from Washington; Livingston, vs. Will-iams, from Washington. Dismissed—Molliman vs. Williams, from Fayette; Aransas Pass railroad vs. Moore, from Fayette. Submissions on brief for both parties —Robertson vs. Dubose, from Angelina; Chesnut vs. Gann, from Angelina. Weather and Crop Bulletin. Galveston, January 24.—[Special.]— The weekly weather and crop bulletin of the Texas State Weather service issued this evening for the week ending Jan-uary 23 reports as follows: The weather during the past seven days has been colder and more seasonable than that for any week during the season to date. The temperature has been down to 10 and 12 in the northern portion of the state and as low as 25 at points near the coast. The weather has been favorable for wheat crops and also for oats sown in the fall. Land is in good condition for spring plowing. An Indian Girl Found Dead. El Paso, January 24.—[Special.]—A young Indian girl’ aged 8 years, was found dead near Ysleta a few'days ago. The officers have been hard at work on the case and have decided that the crime was committed by one or two persons, the grandmother of the child on the mother’s side or the grandmother on the father’s side.

This fact is significant as showing the wonderful development of the rich country around Laredo, which but a few years ago, before the advent of railroads in the city, was an unsettled frontier. The large brick building, 150x50 feet, two stories high, being erected for an iron and brass foundry and machine shops is nearly completed and it is ex-pected that the machinery will be in po-sition by the middle of February. The jury in the trial of Fete Ham-mond, for the murder of J. W. Mul-doney last August, vindicated the law to-day and emphasized the fact that this people will not tolerate crime by bring-ing in a verdict of guilty and assessing the punishment at confinement in the penitentiary for life. The demand for residence sites on wliat is called the Beautiful Heights is unprecedented and the rapidity with which beautiful and costly residences are going up in that vicinity, is a mar-vel to all.
